To Nice for a weekend away avec mon épouse, mais sans enfants!
Seeing as it's such a rare event for us to get away by ourselves and i managed to find a flight for only £7 + tax each way, we didn't feel too bad about splurging on a nice hotel.
with a room with a view of the Mediterranean:
and a pool on the hotel roof:
which we had to ourselves:
Nice hosts the excellent Matisse Museum:
Which is in an olive grove:

Le Régina is where Matisse worked towards the end of his life:
There was a Roman arena in the park:
This nice looking sea food restaurant was suggested by the Lonely Planet guide:
Flower market, minutes before it bucketed down:
Would you buy a jumper from this man ?
Très gentil!
